Thanks David and Viola. The document http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC22/configuring-application-specific-logging-with-log4j.htmlhas been updated with this issue:
You can also use a log4j.properties file in your classpath, for example, in WEB-INF/classes/META-INF. (If you prefer not to place this file under WEB-INF/classes/, the path of this file must be added to your classpath).But this will obstruct anyone trying to configure logging as the file will remain packed in your application somewhere hard to find. <gbean name="DirectoryLog4jConfiguration" class= "org.apache.geronimo.system.logging.log4j.ApplicationLog4jConfigurationGBean"> <attribute name="log4jResource">META-INF/log4j.properties</attribute> </gbean> Best Regards, Ying Tang 2009/6/9 David Jencks <david_jen...@yahoo.com> > > On Jun 8, 2009, at 11:03 PM, viola.lu wrote: > > >> hi, i follow steps in >> >> http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC22/configuring-application-specific-logging-with-log4j.html >> , >> and add gbean information in geronimo-web.xml using log4jResource. >> >> <dep:gbean >> >> class="org.apache.geronimo.system.logging.log4j.ApplicationLog4jConfigurationGBean" >> name="testlogLog4jConfiguration"> >> >> <dep:attribute >> name="log4jResource">META-INF/log4j.properties</dep:attribute> >> >> </dep:gbean> >> >> But "Can't find META-INF/log4j.properties " error always exists. if i use >> log4jFile setting like below: >> >> <dep:gbean >> >> class="org.apache.geronimo.system.logging.log4j.ApplicationLog4jConfigurationGBean" >> name="testlogLog4jConfiguration"> >> <dep:attribute >> name="log4jFile">var/log/log4j.properties</dep:attribute> >> <dep:reference >> name="ServerInfo"><dep:name>ServerInfo</dep:name></dep:reference> >> <!--<dep:attribute >> name="log4jResource">META-INF/log4j.properties</dep:attribute>--> >> </dep:gbean> >> >> it works well. >> >> I looked into ApplicationLog4jConfigurationGBean code: >> ... >> InputStream in; >> if (log4jFile != null) { >> File file = serverInfo.resolveServer(log4jFile); >> in = new FileInputStream(file); >> } else if (log4jResource != null) { >> in = classloader.getResourceAsStream(log4jResource); >> if (in == null) { >> throw new NullPointerException("No log4j properties resource >> found at " + log4jResource); >> } >> } else { >> return; >> } >> >> ... >> >> in = classloader.getResourceAsStream(log4jResource); >> >> ClassLoader will search this file from classpath, and my project structure >> is: >> >> LogWeb >> ---src(testlog.java >> ---WebContent >> META-INF(log4j.properties) >> WEB-INF >> index.jsp >> ---- >> >> Why it can't find out file META-INF/log4j.properties? >> > > Because that's not in your classpath. > > Try WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/log4j.properties. > > thanks > david jencks > > > >> >> Anyone can figure it out?
